The recruiter was straightforward and asked whether I had all the experience listed in my CV. She inquired about salary expectations but refused to mention the role's salary range. Although she didn't say anything explicitly, based on her reaction, my request seemed too high for the role. Anyway, they sent me a technical assessment to complete within five business days, which took me a weekend to finish. The technical interview went well, and the interviewer was kind and thoroughly answered my questions. However, two days later, I received a cold email with negative feedback, with NO details about why they decided not to move forward. Considering they require candidates to put considerable effort into a technical assessment, asking for a more personal email with actionable feedback seems fair. However, this is not what happened in my case.
